Note that the HP IR USB receiver OVU400102/71 uses a Fintek chipset. There have been various problems reported with using this device on XP. In some cases, it is recognized as an eHome device, but then does not send keys as an HID device, (however it worked with the EventGhost MCE Remote plugin). In other cases, it was not recognized as a Microsoft eHome device (a patch from HP may be required), but as a FinTek eHome device (after getting the (hacked) Fintek driver). The FinTek driver does not work on some XP configurations (cause unknown).

HP IR Receiver TSGI-IR01 apparantly has several implementations. The TopSeed (vendor id 1784 Product 0006) implementation does NOT support USB3. Plug into a USB2 port, otherwise, you will get 'random' data whenever a keys is pressed, or worse (hangs, etc.).
